                               RESOLUTION


 
Expressing the sense of the Senate that the President should designate 
         September 26, 2004, as ``National Good Neighbor Day''.

Whereas our society has developed highly effective means of speedy communication 
        around the world, but has failed to ensure meaningful communication 
        among people living across the globe, or even across the street, from 
        one another;
Whereas the endurance of human values and consideration for others are critical 
        to the survival of civilization; and
Whereas being good neighbors to those around us is the first step toward human 
        understanding: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved,

SECTION 1. DESIGNATION OF NATIONAL GOOD NEIGHBOR DAY.

    (a) Sense of the Senate.--It is the sense of the Senate that the 
President should designate September 26, 2004, as ``National Good 
Neighbor Day''.

proclamation--
            (1) designating September 26, 2004, as ``National Good 
        Neighbor Day''; and
            (2) calling on the people of the United States and 
        interested groups and organizations to observe ``National Good 
        Neighbor Day'' with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
